The North Star girls basketball program has not produced a winning season since 2018-19, when the Cougars went 13-11. The program is 50-107 dating back to the conclusion of the aforementioned season, where the Cougars were bounced in the District 5 playoffs. North Star needed a change after John Oleskey stepped down, so the school district went out and hired a proven winner in former Shanksville-Stonycreek girls head coach Cory Crognale.

For 13 seasons, Randy Schrock has been the head varsity basketball coach at North Star – four with the girls and nine with the boys program. The Cougars had great success under Schrock's leadership and guidance. After propelling the North Star boys to a District 5-8 Class 3A title and a PIAA playoff berth this season, Schrock has stepped down, finishing his career on a high note. "I've been thinking for years that it might be my time to get out of it," said Schrock.
